Has Andy Naylor been bugging KLL's phone
Probably not.
I think BHA are free from this problem.

I agree but I suspect it was not confined to NOTW or News International. Beggars belief that the hackers tapped the phone of Milly Dowler, British troops killed in Afghanistan, the parent of one of the Soham girls and victims of the 7/7 bombings, but Rebebkah Brooks says the "worst is yet to come". Excuse me, but can anyone guess what could actually be worse than that? I have been thinking but can't contemplate what could be more deprived.
Goodbye NotW.

Dear God, please don't say they have been hacking the phone of Mr Tumble. :nono:

It doesn't really beggar belief to me because once you do something and nothing happens you carry on and carry on and believe what you are doing is OK.

What I cannot understand in all of this but may have missed something is surely the mobile operator would have know and could have said something ?

I may be wrong but would have thought do.

But that would involve having to buy one, and I have too much self respect.

I think the term "hacking" may be misleading. We can all access our mobile phone voicemail from other phones. Most people do not bother to pin protect this facility (do you?), so providing you know the mobile number of your "target" (which I think is where the police have been obliging in return for a plain brown envelope), you can access voicemail and probably various other functions within a mobile phone from a landline or other mobile.

LOL, exactly. I joked about The Sun and NOTW being "brown paper bag purchases" just the other day. It's a far more shameful purchase than "Big Jugs Monthly" or whatever.

Thanks for that, understand a bit more about this situation.

Still stand by the fact if you do something and then no one raises an issue it becomes a standard thing to do.

Well i was going to say do as you do with your porn-maybe the net has made this early morning newsagent activity a thing of the past-which will be a shame

It was still entirely immoral, irrespective of how easy it was.

I just hope the public are sensible enough to realise News International is the problem, not just one title in its portfolio

I don't disagree with that but if you do something and no one raises an issue you then believe it is just the way things are and carry on.

The point is that certain people perceived this was acceptable as not challenged.
